Backup Tape Rotation

Magnetic tape is one of the easiest ways to back up individual workstations or small networks due to their high volume capacity for very affordable costs. A Backup tape is also easier to store in off site facilities for enhanced security and protection against theft and natural disasters.

Smaller businesses may choose to store their tapes in a safety-deposit box at a local bank, or even a fire-proof vault in their own homes. A safer solution for companies dealing with confidential information is to use off site backup services.

Storing one full set of data on-site enables a company to recovery data immediately. Offsite backup tape storageallows companies to retrieve lost data if anything happens to your on-site computer systems.
